For the epic first episode I am joined by Georgios Anagnostopoulos - a multi-instrumentalist, sound magician and black metal aficionado who plays in and manages a ton of bands and projects (we’ll be mentioning only a few of them here). Georgios has also been touring with Norwegian masters Dødheimsgard and will soon take on the road with our favourite madmen Ved Buens Ende.
So, here we go discussing Greek last names, Sumerian metal and his love for gabber. Is this episode any good? Let’s find out!

The rawking, stoner rock episode! Featuring the Rawk'n'Roll master Martin Petrov himself! Sorry guys, this one is all Bulgarian :-(
Епизод номер 4 отново е на български! Чисто голи и добре хидратирани с немско и ирландско пиво, говорим за 7-инчови винили, смъртни грехове и предстоящите концерти на идеологическата стоунър организация Rawk'n'Roll. Затова специалният гост, музикален селектор и сладкодумен събеседник в случая е Мартин Петров - той има изключителен музикален нюх, както и все по-красива колекция от винили и организирани от самия него концерти.
